I finished up my "Downton Sweater," which I knit like a fiend while watching all 3 seasons of
Downton Abbey over the past month! It is for
The Middle Child, and both of us could not be more thrilled with the finished product!
(shown here on a lovely quilt made by Alison, that I was lucky enough to win!)
Loved the
pattern, by Cotton and Cloud, and was so entranced by this yarn (really, that IS the word) that I had to order a bunch more to make a sweater for myself. It is the PERFECT color of purple, in all its variations.
The sweet braided cable along the shoulders is what sold me on this pattern. Buttons were selected by my daughter from my stash.
And this is my first time knitting a hood! Cute, and she loves it, but what a yarn and time sucker!
I think the only thing more adorable than this sweater is the little girl wearing it :)
